Living Solutions
We provide opportunity for greenery to thrive in the built environment. Bringing nature back to cities where it has been missing for too long. We all feel a relation to plants and nature, grounding us in a sense of familiarity. Reconnecting us to our communities, and sharing the benefits, engages the public and creates even more opportunities for bonding.
Vertical Gardens. Green Walls. Living Facades…
Whatever you call them, their impacts are undeniable, both aesthetically and biologically. Giving people a sense of joy on their daily commute or encouraging folk to linger a while and reconnect.
We have spent years developing the perfect solution to accommodate all use cases. From single storey houses to multi-storey towers, Butong Living Solutions can bring it to life!
Our patented panel systems can perfectly adapt to your facade and fenestration, with simple mounting directly onto the outer skin. U-channels are fixed to the wall, and your bespoke panels are then attached. Spacing for irrigation is already designed into the system to make watering a breeze. You are free to plant in a decorative pattern, leaving some of panels colour to show through, or fill upp all the spaces to maximise the foliage!
We can achieve full storey height panels to ensure the design complements your building. All that is left for you to decide is the colour and the plants.
Our Patented Panels
FACET
Facet Metal Panels are the latest innovation from Butong Living Solutions. The lightweight panel is robust enough to carry a large depth of substrate while also flexible enough to allow the plants room to grow. Each angled facet is individually mouldable and encourages patterns in the panel surface. This extra sculptural dimension can compliment your planting choices. This system provides excellent conditions for plants to thrive on their own, requiring minimal maintenance.
CAVIT
Cavit Concrete Panels are the original Butong creation. The properties created by the patented design is what gives it its strength and porousness. These hand-cast panels use 70% less concrete than a solid panel with no reduction in stability. The panels can be formed to almost any shape and are well suited to smaller applications such as furniture and planters.

Adding lighting options to the panels really give them a new lease of life. A functional sculpture that sets the mood, keeps the peace and provides a gorgeous aesthetic.
Wire Systems
